Wonderful and very involved novel. Talk about revenge! That's some long term grudge holding! ;) I've never seen any of the movie treatments, but I think I sat thru the TV movie in the 70s that starred the miniseries champ, Dick Chamberlain. Funny that there hasn't been any real classic Hollywood treatment of the timeless tale of revenge. I take that back, looking upwards, I see another poster mentions Robert Donat's version. I may have missed that! Yeah, TCMC! Wonderful and very involved novel. Talk about revenge! That's some long term grudge holding! ;)

Death Wish 3 was way better! In that one he got the whole neighborhood in on it! That one was so violent that it even upset Bronson! Also you should have included Vigilante (1982) where Robert Forster actually went as far as to blow up a liberal judge! Death Wish II?
